A study of the socio-economic development of Australian cities, considering the wide aspects of city-region relations, historical aspects, commercial, retail and industrial developments, and the internal residential and social structure of cities. Inequalities in cities, in social and medical pathologies, and in service provision are also reviewed in relation to the ameliorative aspects of social and urban planning, as these affect geographical areas.
